Sunshine and people got you down? Dreamcatcher announced its summer adventure games.

By IGN Staff

Dreamcatcher is preparing to launch and relaunch four of its adventure games this summer to keep you kiddies indoors adventuring (some of them are even out now), so if you spend all day and night in front of your computer and are thus easily burned by the light emitted from a 60-watt lightbulb, then this could be just the excuses you need to keep yourself from being drug outdoors by your folks because it's "healthy" for you. Yeah, sure mom... Healthly.

First down the pipe for mid-August is Amerzone, a re-release of this "classic adventure to those of you who did not have the opportunity or pleasure, of playing this fantastic game when it was originally released."

Basically Amerzone has the player trying to find a bird egg. God damn that's a quest. Seriously, what's so special about that, eh? Well, it's the magical egg of a 'White Bird" and it's gonna save up some Indians.

Next down the pipe is The Legend of the Prophet and the Assassin, a "tale of epic grandeur across the steaming desert sands to the cities of the east."

You're basically a hero on a quest for justice and deal with a guy atop a mountain, some treacherous armed demons (as in their appendages are treacherous), and some mystical warriors.

If neither of these games floats your boat, then go out right now, this very second (though you may want to mop up the ketchup off your pants), and pick up The Ultimate Adventure Games Pack, which consists of Egypt and Egypt 2.

Egypt is a game of exploration and investigation set among "murder and intrigue." Egypt 2, on the other hand, revolves around Tiffet, a young Egyptian woman who "discovers a disastrous illness is spreading throughout the entire city." Hopefully not my city, because another one would just suck. Thankfully, the game leads me to believe the disease is spreading throughout an Egyptian city, it being called Egypt 2 and all. As Tiffet, it'll be up to you to discover a cure.
